Well would anyone like to guess the team before all is revealed at 11.30am.

My guess on who may be part of the starting 11?

Bravo           yes
Sane             yes
Iheanacho      yes

Gundogan       no
Kompamy       no

Bravo will start that seems definite from Guardiola's interview. I'd back Nacho to start but not Sane. I expect the only changes will be in net and striker.

I think starting either or both Sane and Gundogan could surprise Utd. I reckon, they will expect both of them to start on bench.

A Kolorov v Ibra clash would be interesting!

Now we know

Starting 11
Bravo, Sagna, Otamendi, Stones, Kolarov, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Silva (C), Sterling, Nolito, Iheanacho

No Gundogan or Kompany on bench.

CITY SUBS

Caballero, Fernando, Sane, Zabaleta, Clichy, Navas, A. Garcia

We've been excellent. Really superb passing and pressure. It's a joy to watch.

Claudio Bravo on the other hand did a proper Joe Hart and didn't even need to come for that ball. Since then he's looked an absolute mess which is quite worrying.

Great half apart from the last five minutes. We're 2-1 up and by far the better side. Disappointing to give them a goal but focus on the positives. We look good indeed.

that was breathtaking football..simply suberb..i said to my son jude we will gift them one..we always do..

batter the fook out of them 2nd half..they really are shit

The fact Ibra at 36 outshines every other Utd player says it all.

Sky tv campaign against Bravo already commenced.

Great stuff so far (aside from the one lapse - half time came just in time. Pep will get them refocused)

Iheanacho is having a very fine game! Looks really strong in the one on one contests. Won a great header for the first goal. Good lad!

He's looked shocking to be fair

Bravo better get his fekin head together quick!!!

was alright that, made hard work of a mid table team tho

Absolute cracker well deserved win.

One touch Hibra and Pogba playing as a corner flag,well he must have been coz i didnt see him on the pitch.Sane did more than both of them.

Didn't enjoy watching the second half much cos of nerves but overall you have to say the best team won and it looks like being a great season. I'm sure Bravo will improve. KDB was awesome. Defence was very good. Nacho deadly again.

Great result, real end to end stuff in the second half.

Yeah - with their route one football

Credit to Jose though for bringing some youth on and adding some pace, but we weathered the storm.

Disappointed Silva didn't nestle that shot into the top left corner.

Cracking match - great win. 

Best bit of that game was having a manager who reacts immediately to change the game.
